Chunked, Compressed, & Cloud-native N-dimensional arrays See https://zarr.dev/ for more information.

ICYMI: Check out this alternative storage approach for variation data using #Zarr. Rather than grouping all data for a given variant together, its groups all data for a given field, and store as chunked, compressed N-D arrays (tensors). 🤩 doi.org/10.1093/giga...

Analysis-ready VCF at Biobank scale using Zarr

AbstractBackground. Variant Call Format (VCF) is the standard file format for interchanging genetic variation data and associated quality control metrics.

Just back from #CNG2025, I wrote up some thoughts on the traction the @zarr.dev format is gaining in the broader geospatial industry (specifically Earth Observation). I also summarize what features and tools the user and developer communities are asking for to fully leverage Zarr. 👇👇👇

🚨 New blog post 🚨 In it, we show off our recent work deploying #icechunk on top of #NASA's existing archives of Earth observation data. The results: 100x speed up when extracting time series from existing datasets stored as netCDF.

1/ 🚀 Solving #NASA ’s cloud data dilemma: Icechunk unlocks 100x faster access to archival data formats We're thrilled to publish results from our pilot project with NASA and @developmentseed.org to enable high-performance cloud-native access for NASA’s 100s of petabytes of Earth observation data.
